Seven Months

Baby Update

I know every mom says it, but I honestly wish she'd slow down and stop growing up! It's all going so quickly! She is in the top 75% for height and below 50% for weight. My little nugget is so active that her weight has hit a plateau, the Dr. said she's happy and healthy just burning off more calories than the average 7 month old, but things should even out here pretty soon. She's already attempting to walk which leads to face plants in the carpet or walking along holding on to furniture (or Mommy's pants!). She's still a very happy baby!

She also has two little bottom teeth that will be poking through any day now.
